So here it is, the beginning of the King of Fighters XV coverage, with the classic "Choose your main" video! There's A LOT OF CHARACTERS IN THIS GAME. So this video isn't meant to be a comprehensive breakdown of every single character, but rather to give you an idea of what they are about and their flavour to help inform your decision on who you might wanna play. If you are looking for a beginner guide you can also find that linked either at the end of the video, or linked in the video description. Timestamps everywhere to skip to whomever you think is neat and enjoy!
i wanna start with kof but i dont wanna spend money on 15 yet should i get 2002 cause i heard it has rollback or get 13 ?
@@ramkindalethal732 2002 has rollback yes. 13 does not. KoF XV also has really good rollback too
I got a series main team with king, clark, and kyo, the team that'll probably only be available for this game with ángel, shermie, and ramon, and my backup team with joe, maxima, and robert... can't wait to see how the DLCs come and how balance is gonna be over time
Can’t wait to grind this game (and see terry in his motw jacket)
@@MuhammadAli-xw4yc yeah man I was thinking the same thing. I’ve haven’t pre-ordered a game on PlayStation before so I’m not sure. All I know is that when I check the time it says it’s playable on the release date but downloads on the early access date
Man this game is so stylish. I will main everyone and never get any good. 💪
One thing to note about Chizuru: Her illusions never cast a shadow, whereas she does, so you can distinguish between the two before the move finishes.
Never noticed that! Good eye
Not to mention that the screen actually follows her if she’s the real one unlike with the illusions.
Damn secret tech.
@@kitanat9944 correct. I play her and the screen trick is a giveaway. Thankfully because there's EX moves now, there are ways to trick the opponent
@@ubergamer2010 That’s great to hear.
Athena Asamiya
Archtype: PSYCHO BAAAALL
As a Mexican, I have to play Iori or i lose my nationality.
Here’s how you choose
1. Pick iori
2. hehehe HAHAHAH! AHHAHH AHH!!!
I’m Mexican and I’ve never played Iori
@@nephilim2393which one of those two sentences is a lie?
Man you are greatly appreciated. You actually have no idea how clutch you are allowing me to sit here and understand a game before purchase, you do this for a lot of fighting games and Ngl I think I speak for allot of us when I say you are a big reason newer gen fighting game players are getting fighting games. You make it easy
Him and Maximillian Dood are easily my gateways to new fighting games.
Roofle foe the details, Max for the hype.
I agree as I’m new to fighting game like KOF it helps me a lot!
@@BlackMageLozi I understand it’s on the lighter side but the reason for that is so that an indigestible genre can become more palatable. He makes it easier for new fighting games players to play but he also makes it so a more developed fighting game player that is still new (I started the fg genre with dbfz in 2018) can try out legacy series like melty, guilty gear, kof, sf, blazblu etc and can still have an effective guide because more developed players have the ability to discover, so for example here. I know what play styles I like but how would I know what characters do what? Am I meant to sit in the game and go through every character inch by inch ? Nah , I’ll just watch a 2hr video breaking down each character and pick the presidents choice from that , and so I went straight to Shunei, Isla , Chris, Shermie , etc if I went to get into character specifics then I go to other channels but regardless rooflemonger serves as a brilliant entry point.
@@BlackMageLozi This is unnecessarily dismissive and rude.
Honestly, whyare you here if it's kindergarten and this place should be avoided by peoole who like fighting games? Do you make a habit of hanging around and cruising the comments of places that you think are childish and to be avoided?
I think it was valuable to have a short summary of every character, with footage and commentary on feel before the game even came out.
I appreciate the content here. It's all very well made and put together (among the best in the fgc in that regard). While some videos, like this one, are kept to a more surface layer, I've found them valuable learning a new series, or deciding whether to get into a new game (or buy a new game). The historical and topical videos are excellent as well as well researched and edited. And some of the more in depth videos can be of value to anybody, regardless of skill or experience.
Some people just need to crap on others to fill the void inside, I guess. Good luck with that.
* a lot
"If you want to lose friends, Athena is a really good way to do it". Lol!!!😄😄😄
People do get a little annoyed if you get away from them with the teleport a few times.
So this marks the beginning of KoF XV content. This video took... a long time to get ready so if you could drop a like to help the video then bless you. Expect proper guides/combos/tutorials/etc coming over the next days and weeks! Maybe a fluff video in a few days to buy time so I can sleep again lol. KoF XV is really cool! Hope yall like it!
K❤F!
Does the game have charge characters, I loved charge characters because I find quarter circle characters hard to play.
@@lifeonleo1074 Quite a few! and in a bunch of flavours. Ash and Heidern are charge zoners, Leona is charge rushdown, and lots of charge hybrid characters too.
@@rooflemonger OK thanks, great video, your content is fire.
Dude this is awesome!
Can't wait to pick the characters that everyone considers difficult to learn and get frustrated with the game instead of acknowledging that my own choices cause my problems. Great guide homie. Looking forward to the eventual dozens of hours of character guides, but be sure to pace yourself and not work *too* hard.
Ángel, Chizuru and Ash: *Team "WTF AM I DOING!?"*
I will smash the buttons and make it work, somehow
Same
Thing about fighting games like this and how cool all the characters seem from what I seen in the little gameplay trailers for them, it’s hard to decide who I want to main. Just because I’m blown away by how unique every character is and yes they are some that take a back, more then others but I’m here for it. They got every type of archetype I like(which is basically all of them,even charge characters). Which is why I like videos like this. They help me to weed out certain characters and help me find out which characters I went to specifically focus on and get good with. So I got to thank you for such an awesome,albeit long video.
I have such a hard time deciding who I want to play with because of that. I wanted to play Terry but Benimaru man.... And then you have Kukri... I CAN'T CHOOSE.
As a long time kof fan; I literally am going to be playing 95% of the roster constantly. I refuse to have a main. There’s too many cool characters to just pick 3.
@@hickknight I feel you on that. That’s literally me rn with this game and then they showed the dlc teams. Now I’m here like” Damn I really am going to be stuck on who I want to main”. Ig I better take out the good control cause I’m going to try every character now. So RIP to my controller, brain, and hands lol
@@Neogears1312 Ik say 95% too but the way I am with games and especially fighting games, I usually play every single character to where Ik then well enough or to at least have an idea on how they play but it’s rare for most fighting games I tend to around 2-5 mains depending on the fighting itself and the characters themselves too. Good example, on MK 11 Ik how to play everyone in the roster but only got 5 mains and they’re the only ones I really care to play with. KOF though, especially this one is a whole other beast I’ll tell you cause I guarantee I won’t find a main til probably years down the line if any at all but I’m ok with that and love KOF more for that
@@hickknight good thing you have to pick 3.
Nothing to do with the game but the line "And Bob's your uncle" gave me the biggest hit of deja vu. My Grandpa used to say that ALL the time, hadn't heard it used in over 20 years. Lol. Weird moment.
I know it's not exactly what video is about but I love how over the top expressive characters' walking and running animations are. So much personality.
Terry really benefits more than most from the ex move changes. He’s typically been terrible at mixups (a deliberate decision) because he’s never had anything to make you wanna stop crouch blocking sans an obvious jump in so ex crack shoot really does a lot for him. Combined with his other great ex’s and it’s nice to see Terry in high tier again after years.
As a Tsubaki main in BBCF, i looooooove me some overheads. >:)
Ye
I love this video is just here to be this conversation:
"So kof has a lot of characters."
Rooflemonger: "Yes"
"Which character has command grabs."
Rooflemonger: " Yes."
What's awesome about the characters is that with the system mechanics, characters can easily switch up their playstyles on the fly. For example I love King's zoning tools, but with run and hops, I can play her aggressively and use her tools in new ways. Or take Kyo as another easy example. He's definitely rushdown, but with rolls and the ability to cancel rekkas whenever you want, you can easily play him as a bait and punish character.
I've played fighting games for a long time, and DBFZ was the first game I really tried to get serious in, but eventually the same-iness got to me, and I can't enjoy it as much. Getting into KOF has been fun because it has that breakneck pace but also that classic fighting game feel of expansive options. Looking forward to 15! Thanks for the content Roof.
The movement mechanics make this game. You got normal jumps, super jumps, short hops, super short hops, foreward and backrolls, alpha counters that crumple; its pretty loaded
I love how the universal buff to hit confirming in this game. XIV had a lot of characters that lacked Cmd normal true combos and thus took a lot of effort to learn how to be safe with
And heeeerrrreeee weeeee GO! The big boy video to start it off! Thanks for this massive boost right at the start of the game, once I get home from work I’ll be watching this beast in full! (And hopefully finding my main team)
This'll be my 1st KOF
Glad they sped up KODs run. His run in XIV was glacial
Robert is a great beginner character because he has all the basic stuff, great normals, and he’s suave as fuck
You are actually such a workhorse, great job getting this done
What I really like about KOF is that even if a character is a certain archetype the playstyle will allow a certain level of flexibility so you don't have to be on a one track mind with how to play
I kept seeing and reading that Leona is easy and you disagree, good thing! I'm a beginner to fighting and I started to learn Balrog on SFV to learn charge characters (which I hated for a long time) and had so much fun doing it and then learn Leona because I got my name thanks to her and I love her a lot (god those abs). So far I'm discovering how KOF works since it's my first one, but learning the game and Leona has been really fun and rewarding, I'm getting way more consistent on the charging and I love it!
"Helloooo aand welcome!"
When I first started watching your channel: "God why do I find that so annoying"
After months and years of enjoying learning from your content: "What a comforting and familiar intro to a learning session~"
Already know my team is gonna be Krohnen/Rock Howard/Darli Dagger. I'm a complete KoF noob that casually played 14 and my team will entirely be comprised of who I think is cool regardless of how they play lol (still watching this whole thing tho)
I’ve never played KoF besides a little bit of 2002 UM and XIV but this time im really into it and the characters imma play is Vanessa, Luong, and Ángel because they either have stances or they’re hard as hell which means you need to put work in which I enjoy doing in video games technical characters are my favorite types
So far I'm liking:
Joe Higashi
Luong
Chris
Maxima
Yuri
Kukri
Ramon
Blue Mary
Chizuru
Yamazaki (when he drops)
Man. Just finished the video beginning to end, and I can't thank you enough for this. Such an invaluable resource for a newcomer like me, I hope you know all that effort was without a doubt worth it.
Thanks friend, happy you enjoyed the vid
@@BlackMageLozi kinder "garden"
HOLY SHIT THAT IORI SUPER
This being my 1st KOF I'm getting into is super helpful. Thank you very much!!!!
I'll use Kyo/Ash/Benimaru as it was my main team in Kof XIII and I won alot of online matches using said team
Meitenkun seems so fun. I'm not usually the one to pick a charge character, even if I do like most charge characters, but I will do it for this adorable little sleepyhead.
Watching the full video because I just wanna see a whole load of KoF tbh, currently up to Ash and whilst i've never cared too much for him either way - I gotta say wow, his animations look super good.
I'm notoriously terrible at fighting games. I had SF 2 on Sega Genesis back in the day but that was it. I haven't played a fighting game since. However I kinda want to get into KOF 15. The character designs and bright colors really entice me. Lol thanks for the guide. I will definitely take notes and pick my mains carefully LOL
Welcome man, I hope you like it, KOF has some of the best character designs out there
Be sure to try out tons of characters regardless of what you *think* you might like. There's something for just about everyone in a game this diverse.
In the same boat tbh, I'm also terrible at fighting games but I'm really willing to learn this one and put time into it.
the one thing i wish this video had, is seeing your inputs. sure, im seeing the character tools, but i heavily value the "input flow" that im going to be doing a lot as each character.
I'm brand new to KOF, and I just bought KOFXV for PS5. This is extremely useful. I'm so excited to learn. Thank you🙂!
I'll definitely be choosing Leona, Elisabeth, and Dolores for my team. Though I will keep my fingers crossed for Vice and Mature as DLC!
tbh I always choose characters that I like because of...well...it's character. I honestly don't care what it's mechanics are, if I like the character I will put extra effort to learn it no matter what.
honestly, as someone whos been trying to get into fighting games recently charge characters have never really clicked with me, I think I'm gonna try and learn how so I can play Leona, all her moves look so cool and her design and personality are so good
You should try to test Leona, she's actually one of the best beginner-friendly charge characters out there, it was with her that I learned how to play with them 😅
Leona has awesome normals. Kinda compensate for her being a charge character
I like the idea of some moves being called “belligerent.”
Mmm....mmm...give me that KOF content baby!!!
Starting off with Isla, Leona, Blue Mary… I have no experience with charge characters nor grapplers esc characters… but they look fine so why not Lmaoo. This is also going to be the first KOF I own 😬 wish me luck
IM SUPER EXCITED. And honestly by looks Mai Shiranui and Luong are the ones I want to main. And try out Terry. And so far they seems just the perfect fit in playstyle!
This is God's work
Terry's been on every single KOF team that i've mained since 1994 and that's not changing anytime soon, he's been my favorite character since forever, going back to the Fatal Fury series. I'm thinking i'll use K' and Yashiro well. I'll probably drop one of them when Gato is released tho. Great video man!
K' is so interesting to play but he seems to get overlooked for whatever reason.
@@Cheezmonka Yea i've always been a big K' fan, he's definitely my favorite KOF protagonist for sure.
There are still so many KOF characters that I want to try out so I really appreciate something like this! You’ve got a real knack for getting across what makes characters fun to play, while still keeping their weaknesses in mind
As a SF player (Gief/Honda), I'm looking for a character that revolves around making good reads and punishing reckless approach. Good AA essential. Grapplers most welcome. Dino looking pretty nice to me so far.
Dino basically is your boy if thats what you are looking for.
If they didn't change it from KOF XIV, Dino also has a fairly nice footsie tool in that his standing B ankle kick will combo to his hcb+A command throw if done at all but max range. The kick is safe on block (slightly minus IIRC) and projects Dino's axis forward a little, which pulls him into command throw range if you special-cancel it. So if you've been successfully picking at people's limbs with his standing B, you might want to commit to the special cancel to get some easy extra damage+knockdown. it's obviously unsafe on block (cmd throw whiffs), but the kick is fast enough that it's a great whiff punish on many missed C/D moves, so it's easy to just react and clip someone's limb with an st.B.
Look into Clark
If grapplers are your thing, you have Dinosaur, Maxima, Shermie and Clark to choose from. Clark in particular is a very strong grappler with good mobility.
You can make some nice reads with maxima since some of his heavies have armour he also have a great command grab and a air grab
I swear man if fighting games was a school subject you would be a great teacher
Ryo parrying the big arm was the highlight lol
When I found out that PC don't get the early access I'm a bit sad. But I understand why they don't do it.
Thanks for this! I’ve never played a KOF before so this will be a good time killer for the rest of my shift tonight. I already know it’s going to be good content so thanks again! :)
@@starbreaker6441 I’m going to have to continue another night!!! Had too much stuff going on at work. The crew kept interrupting me. Lol I was liking the dinosaur dude surprisingly 😂😂. When I watch the rest I’ll let you know.
Edit: I’m definitely going to try Angel also along with Mr. Dino. I played Orchid in KI, Noel in Blazblue so I’m used to playing characters that have follow up attacks. If my friend gets the game I’ll definitely troll with the sleepy dude, and say dumb shit like, “Yawwwwn this match is putting me to sleep.” Lol We already have an inside joke about acting like we’re tired so it’ll be perfect. 😂😂😂
Gotta say this game is looking extra crispy. SNK really did a great job with the graphics.
The joke about Andy's lifestyle is underrated, good shit as always Roofle!
great video and my man even picked rivals to demonstrate the characters, shout out for his effort in the details /o/
What timing! Just preordered it today and I thank you for this video
You are on timing with this one. I was looking for this all over the interwebs.
Preordered the deluxe edition despite this being my first KOF because the betas were really hype. Kyo, Shermie, and Iori had some really fun gameplay, but I can tell this is gonna be one of those fighting games where I wanna play nearly the whole roster. I feel like I'll definitely gravitate towards Luong, Iori, and someone else for sure. So many characters ooze personality in this franchise (which ultimately led to me having a soft spot for it), and I'm extremely glad it translated well into this game as well!
DLC is also looking really good. Yamazaki, Geese, Gato. All really solid picks for me
@@DCDsauce I agree! I’d say the only character I wasn’t interested in was Billy bc I’ve never really liked him. I REALLY hope Rugal gets revealed though
@@UncleShlime Billy was meta last game, let's see how he performs in this one
@@UncleShlime well.......
Ik exactly who om playing but u always have such an entertaning way of explaining things
This video gonna solve a lot of reddit/forum posts that ask about what characters do. Gonna be recommending it from now on
I'm still kind of on the fence about getting this game. But I definitely have a lot more respect for how cool a lot of these characters are. Really Cool spins on archetypes. Tons of options. Cool ex effects. Good job KoF. I didn't know that.
Give it a shot, man! You won't regret it ;)
@@benearthside haha I'm getting married at the end of next week and as soon as we get back Elden Ring comes out which will require my free times full attention. But I do hope it sells well and does well. I'm pretty interested in rock and geese Howard tbh so maybe I'll circle back to it later.
@@Trigun_Bebop Oh wow, congratulations! Best of luck, dude. That sounds responsible-I don't think I'd trust myself not to get sucked into a new KOF game in your situation :P
@@Trigun_Bebop Ayyyyyyyyyyy congrats
@@Trigun_Bebop
You definitely will NOT have time If youre gonna play elden ring and youre getting married .
Dont even bother
Oh man this was extremely thorough, thank you SO much for this entire guide! Glad to see some of my preferred characters getting new tricks to use in this game~
Definitely considering putting in the time to learn Angel but this video made me consider so many other characters. Can't wait to try them. Thank you for this!
Dude I am blown away by the quality of helpfulness of this video, instant sub!
Can’t even imagine how much time you put into this entire video. Great work!
A lot, im very tired lol
This was a great video roofle!
Lots of useful information not only if you want to play the characters but to know what their game plan is about when playing against them.
Great video man! Straight to the point which I'm sure a lot of beginners are looking for.
Thank you for including signature moves for each character. Helps me learn what to watch out for when facing characters on top of helping me pick my main at the same time.
Thank you for this video I'm just starting KoF and wondered what character is for me, and this is very helpful.
Thank you so much for this guide! With so many characters to choose from, this helps get a quick feel on who I'd main
This game is so complex underneath the surface but thanks to the love in these videos Ill be main eventing evo in no time! 🙏🔥
This video is a must watch for the newcomers into KOF. Pretty much covers all the essentials about the characters.
Starting off with Whip, Krohnen, & Joe. Kyo & Luong look really cool as well. Looking forward to Yamazaki in Pack 2!
This game is what got me into fighting games.
Thank you for the effort you put in this video! I'm sure there are others like me somewhat new to KOF that watched it through!! 🙏
One thing not many people know, is that KoF XV's combo decay is very lenient, when compared to most games. Each hit only reduced the damage of the next attack by 5%, stacking (adding) with each consecutive hit.
This means that, even though most combos may seem short in this game, their damage is very rewarding and supers will still do considerable damage even at the end of corner/juggle combos.
What a video! Thanks for helping me round down from 18 to around 6
Great video. Much needed info for someone looking to branch out onto something new, competitively. I found that I jive with 4 or 5 of these characters. You saved me so much time.
Clark Vanessa and Ryo for me
Time stamps, HA! I watched this whole video bro lol. I got mine on pre-order and I’m so, EXCITED! One of my favorite games. It’s easy to see if you skim thru my social medias (no one reading this has to follow me, not a cheesy plug) I wear the fatal fury hat every where I go. This series and street fighter will always share my number 1 spot for favorite games because they are what made me want to be a martial artist in real life
Thank you for your clear and concise explanations. You are so easy to listen to and follow along with!!
Thank you so much for this guide Bro! As a complete casual at Kof trying to learn the game this is a HUGE help!!!
Really appreciate you putting this guide together! I’m just starting out with KoF, so having a quick reference for all the characters is very helpful.
Great video! Thanks for all your hard work in giving us a great character overview!
My team will be 1 zoner, 1 grappler, and 1 all rounder / rush down. So probably a mixed of Terry, Ryo, Chris, Shermie, Yashiro, Meitenkun, and Blue Mary. Btw great video 👍👍
been hyped about the game and loving the coverage on this channel
got to play for some days now, it's so hard but really fun, thanks so much for taking time to cover every single character, it really helped me make choices
appreciate your hard work, you're invaluable to this community!
Ah, that 99 throwback with Ralf
You crazy crazy man! Looking forward to this over the weekend!
Thanks for the in-depth video. I’m new to KOF so I really didn’t know where to begin. Definitely gonna make sure King and Robert is on my first team!
something i love about these videos is i can get a completely new insight on certain games. never really was interested in kof beyond the art and 2d sprites but man you really just showed me how unique and in depth this series can be. Probably gonna be a purchase soon
Been waiting for dis. And also waiting for my Deluxe Koch edition to arrive. I really hope this one goes the distance, cause KOFXV looks mega great.
For anyone even remotely interested, my main will undoubtedly be Mai, complemented most likely by Gatou (when the DLC drops) or Terry, and rounded out by Kyo (he felt good during the Beta), or maybe Iori (felt less natural for me than Kyo, but I understood his game-plan. Characters I'm super interested in trying out to see if they feel natural are Elisabeth, Yuri, K' (although in the beta he felt a little complicated) Joe and Angel (even though I know she's notriously one of the most complex characters in all of fighting games). That's the great thing about KOF - there's so many fantastic characters - so this list is mega helpful. Thanks so much for your great efforts, Roofle.
appreciate the work you're putting in! cant wait to finally get my hands on this game
You're the best! 🤩 Thanks a lot for this in depth tutorial on every single character. RM the FGC teacher! 👨🎓
What a fantastic guide. Thanks so much for this 🙂
A monster of a video already! Appreciate all the effort, man!
Just played this game for fun with my friend and now I want to pick up this game! Thanks for this video!
Luong, Blue Mary and Angel 😩💜💙 My queens!!
Leona too 😳💚 can’t forget her
Wow mans putting in overtime! Wasn’t expecting this so fast. Great job and thanks for the amazing vid
Dude it’s official, you’re my favorite fighting game content creator, I can feel the love from every vid you put out. Keep it up and go out and play some KoF my guy 👍🏾. Hope my Angel, Vanessa, Clark team finds you online on Monday!
Thank you for putting so much work into videos like these Roofle, you're definitely my top source for fighting games. I love that you're so informative, but still entertaining without being overly exaggerated, and your passion for the games really shows. Roster overviews like these are nice, even if I'm not totally new to a franchise. This game especially has so many characters that I'm interested in, it helps give me a little better idea of who all to try out first.
I've never really played a KOF game before, I've always been more into stuff like guilty gear, street fighter, smash, etc, but I am REALLY tempted to just go ahead and give it a try. The characters I'm most interested in rn are Meitenkun, Isla, Dolores, and Rock Howard whenever he comes out! I tend to main a lot of different playstyles across different games so really I just focus on picking someone who looks cool and labbing the fuck outta them LOL
